I was looking to buy a trailer tent but should I be pulling nearly 900Kg's with my C70 T5 ? as : 1) Has the T5 got a lighter / weaker gearbox (Manual) than no T5 volvo's 2) C70 Cabro has a very weak chassis, would this put to much extra strain on it ? 3) Can the intercooler cope ? Look forward to your comments. PS Point 1 was highlighted when my Director bought a 850 T5R, towed with it and damaged the gearbox, he was later told the R versions had race gearbox's in and should never tow anything......(his was an auto though) __________________ Regards MDE C70 T5 LPG -Convertible + Lotus Esprit 480 TURBO ......................Previous .... 340GL,740GL,850GLT,850 T5,850 R,V70R,(95) 960 3.0,480 Turbos in white, black, blue, gold,S60 T5
